Illinois Valley Community College will celebrate its first homecoming in decades on Saturday, Nov. 2, the day after the Peter Miller Community Technology Center grand opening.
IVCC-LPO Homecoming offers alumni and friends the opportunity to “come back to the hill for a weekend full of fun activities,” said Associate Vice President for Student Services Tracy Morris.
The celebration starts with tours of the new building from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m.; a cookout and activities from 11:30 a.m. to 1 p.m.; women’s basketball vs. Daley at 1; and men’s basketball vs. Lewis University’s club team at 3. Guests wearing IVCC apparel will get into the games for $1; those wearing LPO or Apaches apparel will get in free.
The day will conclude with a 5:30 to 7 p.m. social gathering at Claudette’s, 253 E. Walnut St., Oglesby. Visit www.ivcc.edu/homecoming for updates.
